FOX news commenter Lou Dobbs declared two recent movies The Secret World of Arrietty and The Lorax as having a liberal agenda to create “occu-toddlers.” The Lorax is a CG Dr. Seuss movie about taking from the Earth without giving back and The Secret World of Arrietty a Hayao Miyazaki anime based on the novel The Borrowers where really small people live with humans and take what they need to survive. Basically that they’re promoting the anti-industrial views and the protection of the environment from industrialization. Lou Dobbs mentions how the Occupy Wall Street movement pits makers against takers, but I’m not too sure to which of whatever he’s referring to. Hayao Miyazaki movies are often licensed and have showings in theaters, but he is not quite apart of Hollywood. Guests also mention how movies such as these try to parent kids so that parents don’t have to, but that’s under the assumption that the parents aren’t parenting.
